Hi DD owners,
One of the things I want to get when I move to BC, is a dog. I have looked into different breeds and it looks like DD is a breed that would work well for me. My hunting is very mixed type of hunting and DD seems to be a multipurpose dog. I plan to get a dog next spring.

I am curious, what is the cost of a DD puppy (i would prefer a male)? Also, how much should I spend to have someone train my dog (for hunting)?

I grew up around german sheppards and maremma type dogs and have never hunted nor trained a dog. I mean i taught dogs simple tricks, but would like to get dog well trained, so I can take it hunting with me and have a successful hunt. I hate spoiled (untrained) kids and dogs
